The Legend of Heroes: Trails Through Daybreak ENGLISH REVIEW as a Newcomer... a MASTERPIECE?
NO SPOILERS! We're jumping into our first Trails game The Legend of Heroes: Trails Through Daybreak. Thanks to NIS America for sending over the new English language release of the game. Can you start here? Or do you need to go back to the first PSP game? I spent over 25 hours diving early into the game and here are my thoughts. Is it a JRPG masterpiece?

    I cannot believe how many games you have or how you possibly have the time to play them. I had Atari 2600, NES, SNES, Genesis, Dreamcast, and my absolute favorite Turbografx 16. No system but the TG-16 had more than 15 games. The TG-16 had more because when going out of business the games were $5 and I got maybe 30 more games (including Bonk 3). Your Switch games alone must have cost you a small fortune. I pretty much went to PC gaming after the Dreamcast and rarely ever play the old games. I did get an XBOX Series X (an amazing system) just to play Forza 5 but other than that it's PC only.

    I think some of this “anxiety” when it comes to backlog has to do with feeling like you are wasting resources, whether it’s space or money, on the items in the backlog. If you feel this way, might want to look at your backlog and sell items you know you won’t play. Also, start buying games much cheaper.

    Great video, yeah i have my preorder locked in waiting for delivery for Friday's release date. I played the first two chapters during the demo release. I agree with you regarding the quartz system. It actually worked really well in the latest Western release of Trails into Reveire as well as the Cold Steel arc but i am not happy with the direction they took with this latest release. But like any RPG i will just get used to it and get over it. (I am still bitter about losing the epic Final Fantasy X battle system in recent FF releases) Great review / opnions about the game.

  • @SizzlingOne
    @SizzlingOne 6 днів тому

    From just a resolution standpoint, localization changes and fluidity I'd advise you to play the Trails in the Sky Trilogy, Azure duology AND Cold Steel quadrilogy PC ports as opposed to PSP. Steam or GOG (options abound). Welcome to the greatest RPG series ever made. EDIT ON SIDEQUESTS: Now, HERE is the con as to unfortunately not having started from the beginning of this series for you. Sidequests are typically a big deal when it comes to character cameos or extra story revelations throughout the series. Especially in Cold Steel installments in my experience. Though I will admit that making sidequests much more involved (a la Red Baron "The Witcher 3" style) would serve as an added evolution factor.

    4 games physically on PSP in English a tear of vermilion, the prophecy of the moonlight witch, songs of the ocean, trails in the sky chapter 1 which you can play 1 out of those 4 on Steam the trails in the sky series which includes chapter 2 and 3 when you get them on Steam trails of cold steel 1,2 on PS3 trails of trails of cold steel 1,2,3,4 on PS4 & Steam think switch to trails into reverie PS4 & Steam think switch to. Trails the zero and trails to azure PS4 & Steam switch to I think and now trails of daybreak being the most recent. If you want to play the 3 they never ported over to modern consoles or steam you will need a PSP 1000,2000,3000 to play them since they are UMD's.

    @jefflynch 7 днів тому

    To be fair, I have noticed that "Find the Cat" quests can be found throughout JRPGs. Final Fantasy, Persona, Xenoblade, Dragon Quest, Star Ocean, etc. As I was telling my friend the other day while I was playing the demo for Trails Through Daybreak and came upon the cat quest, I almost expect it now as a trope. Perhaps it's a nod to the notion of "Save The Cat" in fiction writing, in which a writer makes a main character seem endearing to readers early by having them perform an altruistic deed, like saving a cat. Saving a cat is just an example, but games seem to take this quite literally. I've noticed that these Save the Cat quests usually appear early on in games as well. So when I come across these quests, I kind of see it as a developer's tongue-in-cheek nod to the fiction writing technique.

  • @TheatreKallum
    @TheatreKallum 7 днів тому

    That cat side quest is actually super important. You will see by the end why the game asks you to slow down and do side quests like that, its essential to the world buliding but particually that first village is really speific. Trails games are at thier best when you speak to every npc and do every side quest. I get why you could bounce off them but the way the games are written side quests will activley change the story and will carry over mutiple entires in the series.
